The laws of God regarding fasting and obligatory prayer are
absolutely incumbent upon His servants. Therefore, they must turn their faces
to the Point of Adoration of the celestial Concourse, hold fast to the most
sublime Station, and pray and supplicate that they may be freed from the doubts
of misinterpretation. This is the way of 'Abdu'l-Bahá. This is the religion of
'Abdu'l-Bahá. This is the path of 'Abdu'l-Bahá. Whoever cherisheth the love of
Bahá, let him choose this straight path.
